A Word to Parents and Spectators
Calvary Baptist Church School students are all aware of the standards set forth by our school, but you may be unaware of what we expect from our spectators. Therefore, we have listed a few things to keep in mind when you attend a CBCS athletic event.
A. CBCS’s goal is to present a positive testimony for Jesus Christ at all times. This is especially true during our competitions with other schools whether Christian, private or public. The word Christian means “Christ-like”. It is your responsibility as a parent, fan or spectator to properly represent Christ and CBCS at all times. This certainly applies to all athletic events at home or away.
B. As difficult as it may be for some, comments and remarks to game officials and opposing team’s coaches or players should be positive. Antagonizing, acoustic remarks hurt our school’s testimony as well as our team’s relationship with the officials.
C. Please do not coach our athletes from the bleachers. We have good, capable coaches who are trained for that job.
D. Do not criticize! As fans you may sometimes feel that you are able to do a better job than the coach. Despite your feelings you must realize that coaching is not your responsibility.
